Sampler Village Giveaway & Review - ENDED



Sampler Village generously sent me a winter sample box full of handmade goodies to review. I'm a huge fan of sampler boxes, they're a great way to sample tons of handmade products all at once and a fun treat to purchase for a friend or yourself! Sampler Village didn't disappoint, the box was packed full of handmade goodness and smelled amazing the moment I opened it.

As soon as I smelled the amazing scent coming out of the box, I was on a mission to find what exactly was creating that delicious smell. There were tons of smelly good candles, tarts, bath bombs and soaps in the box. Some of my favorites were by Delightful Scents, Bath Talk, Sudsy Wudsy Soaps, Rena's Needful Things and Janine's Soap Suds. The moment I started unpacking the box, my cat Sparkles rushed past me to literally tear into the catnip fortune cookie toy by Shaggy Chic. She wouldn't leave me alone until I opened the package for her so she could play with her new toy. Once Sparkles was occupied, I discovered the most adorable castle cupcake topper by Marilee Jane Designs and some yummy fudge by My Wooden Spoon. I also enjoyed the scrapbooking embellishments by the Victorian Mercantile Store.

The Sampler Village box was like Christmas in a box! Treat yourself to a Winter Sampler Box (16-18 samples) or the Winter Sample Bag (8 samples). Check out the loot:

I like that you get to get a little sample from each shop without having to go to various shops & pay shipping for each. It's all in one sampler box! peanut{at}nyc.rr.com
